Compliance with NCAA Rules

The University of Nebraska Athletic Department considers full compliance with NCAA rules an imperative and encourages alumni and other boosters to assist in that effort by becoming cognizant of the rules and refraining from any activity that would jeopardize the University’s status and eligibility to participate in intercollegiate sports governed by the NCAA. Questions concerning compliance issues should be directed to Laure Ragoss, the Associate Athletic Director of Compliance:
